100% Cotton

Made from 100% pure cotton fiber, this soft and luxurious paper is great for digital printing, letterpress and foil stamping. This "tree-free" paper is produced with recycled fibers using windpower, which makes it an environmentally friendly option.


20pt thick : Because it is a soft paper, foil and letterpress may show through the opposide side of the card. One-side only is recommended for letterpress or foil jobs. Cotton paper is not as rigid as other stocks such as a 16pt standard stock for example. 


40pt thick : Thicker than a credit card. Suitable for letterpress, foil or debossing on both sides.


Ecological properties
-Tree-free paper
-Cotton is sustainable, renewable, and biodegradable
-Produced with wind energy
-Chlorine free and acid free
-Recyclable and compostable

IMPORTANT - Digital printing considerations


Digital print has a shinier look than offset or letterpress. To preserve paper's natural texture, we recommend using a light ink coverage artwork where the background remains mostly white. 


IMPORTANT - Letterpress printing considerations



  • Depth of impression will vary depending on selected paper and artwork. Text and fine lines may be pressed deeper while reversed type and large areas may not.

  • Letterpress is meant to be used for minimal ink coverage. No large areas of ink!

  • Colors are printed one at a time. Letterpress is great for 1 or 2 color jobs. Pantones only, no CMYK!

  • No halftones, no gradients, no photos. Solid colors only.

  • Vector or high quality tiff files only. No JPEG!

  • Paper, color and imprint has variations from piece to piece because of the manual nature of letterpress printing.

  • Width of lines must be a minimum of 0.25pt.

  • 6pt sans serif minimum font size. Reverse type minimum font size is 12pt or it can clog up.
